Kulan: Knightfall's Crisis in Bluffside Game [OOC]

[TaranTheWanderer]

I’m assuming we are doing the butcher first
@Aust Thale @Neurotic @Tellerian Hawke

You should think of 4 questions.

I have two castings. I will save the second casting in case the corpse succeeds on the save, for follow up questions or to talk to the enchantress.

 

[Neurotic]

1. Where is Bluffside main hideout of the Loyalists?
2. Where is Bluffside main hideout of the Dusk?
3. How long before you're risen again?
4. How can you be killed permanently?

Akos too would go shopping if there is time before new events (but after disenchantment of the sword). He doesn't mind if he needs to go to that dangerous area, but he would prefer someone accompanying him.

Regarding last questions: Is there some kind of rumour that he'll come back from the dead? Would the butcher even know how long??

I know this sounds weird but, there are ways to prevent him from being risen:
1. Remove his head: if it's raise dead, they need the body.
2 True resurrection: you can prevent him from being raised if he's animated as a zombie. There must be some kind of neutral cleric of the dead. It's a bit sketchy but a mindless zombie is much better than a living Butcher.
3. Bring the body into the labyrinth so that time passes quicker and the time limit to raise passes quicker.

We don't know. The Butcher himself said something along the lines of 'you can kill me, I'll return' - it may be some kind of revenant / eternal guardian thing...

Making note of all PC character levels...

Falen: Rogue 3 / Wizard 2 / Unseen Seer 3 / Mindbender 1
Sir Tymbeck Valencia: Fighter 9 (LA bought off)

Vincenzo d'Lucio: Martial Rogue 2 / Transmuter 6 / Swiftblade 2
Vitus: Cleric of Tyche 8

For the purposes of future XP, Custodio and Tuck will count as one 8th-level character. (Each with get a half share of XP.) Once I find the right time to write Tuck out of the game, Custodio will go back to being the only major NPC.

The party level is 8.8 without Custodio and Tuck and 8.7 with them. Regardless, the party level will be set to 9 for the purposes of dividing XP.

Why not use this downtime to take Tuck out?
I don't have the full info obviously, just curious...

I have a plan and I'm going to stick to it.

And, I just realized I forgot about the magical necklace that Akos magically removed from the gargoyle golem.

 

[Neurotic]

I didn't think it was anything beyond means to control the thing But we did say we will examine it.
Roll when taken: spellcraft 20
Re-examination at 9th level: spellcraft 24
Re-examination at 10th level: spellcraft 37
